Did you know when you create an article for a client, you should only spend 50% of your time actually writing?
You might be losing potential clients because you’re too focused on getting words on the screen. Maybe you think that great authors use long words and flowery sentences. Or you don’t bother learning about images because that’s a graphic designer’s job.
Do you go to work wishing you didn’t have to endure one more day listening to your demanding boss?
Or, are you a stay-at-home mom drowning in tea parties and fort building, hoping to have some adult interaction?
Why not become a freelance writer? The demand for writers is expected to grow 6% between 2010 and 2020.
It’s a fantastic time to be a freelance writer.
In the last 10 years there has been a 300% increase in hiring writers and it’s continuing to rise.
As a freelancer you sit all day I bet.
From your bed to the kitchen table to have breakfast, then maybe to the couch for some laptop emailing and maybe off to your day job where you…sit.
Do you want to write about medical health, but not sure where to start? Or are you unsure of what it takes to be a medical writer?
You’ve come to the right place (or post, I should say). While it can be a lucrative niche, there are many types of medical writing you can do. Navigating this niche can be overwhelming, even for the more experienced writers.
Congratulations!
You finally made up your mind to become a freelance writer and you can’t wait for the money to start pouring in.
As a newer freelance writer, are you trying to break into more lucrative niches?
Not only do you want to get paid to write, but you want to get paid what you’re worth. And you’d like to do work that brings real value—and big profits—to your clients.
Browse a few job boards, and you’ll probably see that a lot of postings ask that you have a college degree before even considering sending off your application.
Many times, the minimum qualification for a college degree is just another means to assist recruiters with funneling through vast amounts of prospective applicants.
